Joachim, Justin, Last I looked, texture coordinates were not generated for Text3D geometry. Using Text3D is also a very easy way to generate thousands of vertices within your scene, particularly for serif fonts at large sizes. Justin, it sounds like you are going to need your own 2D font rendering system. Perhaps there is support for texturing fonts, alignment etc. in Java 2D you can use?
